We studied the stabilising effect of prosthetic replacement of the radial head and repair of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) after excision of the radial head and section of the MCL in five cadaver elbows. Division of the MCL increased valgus angulation (mean 3.9 +/- 1.5 degrees) and internal rotatory laxity (mean 5.3 +/- 2.0 degrees). Subsequent excision of the radial head allowed additional valgus (mean 11.1 +/- 7.3 degrees) and internal rotatory laxity (mean 5.7 +/- 3.9 degrees). Isolated replacement of the radial head reduced valgus laxity to the level before excision of the head, while internal rotatory laxity was still greater (2.8 +/- 2.1 degrees). Isolated repair of the MCL corrected internal rotatory laxity, but a slight increase in valgus laxity remained (mean 0.7 +/- 0.6 degrees). Combined replacement of the head and repair of the MCL restored stability completely. We conclude that the radial head is a constraint secondary to the MCL for both valgus displacement and internal rotation. Isolated repair of the ligament is superior to isolated prosthetic replacement and may be sufficient to restore valgus and internal rotatory stability after excision of the radial head in MCL-deficient elbows. 相似文献

The stabilizing role of the lateral ligament complex and the radial head were investigated in ten osteoligamentous elbow preparations. The annular ligament was the prime stabilizer of the lateral aspect of the elbow. Transection of the annular ligament caused maximal varus and external rotatory instability of 13.7 degrees and 32.8 degrees respectively, with an elbow flexion about 70 degrees. Isolated excision of the radial head caused slight varus and external rotatory instability of 4.8 degrees and 10.4 degrees respectively, with an elbow flexion about 40 degrees. The lateral collateral ligament had only a minor stabilizing function of the elbow. The stability of the elbow after excision of the radial head may be improved by proper preservation of the annular ligament. 相似文献

Elbow joint kinematics after excision of the radial head. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The contribution of the radial head to elbow joint kinematics was studied in 7 osteoligamentous elbow preparations. During unloaded flexion and extension, radial head excision induced a maximum varus displacement of 1.6 degrees with 20 degrees of joint flexion and a maximum external rotation of 3.2 degrees at 110 degrees of flexion. With application of a 0.75-Nm load, radial head excision induced a maximum laxity of 3.3 degrees at 20 degrees of flexion in forced varus and a maximum laxity of 8.9 degrees at 10 degrees of flexion in forced external rotation. No laxity was observed in forced valgus or internal rotation. The results were independent of the rotation of the forearm. This study indicates that the radial head acts as stabilizer to the elbow joint in forced varus and in forced external rotation. The results suggest that fractures of the radial head cannot be treated by simple excision without altering the basic kinematics of the elbow joint. 相似文献

A widely used clinical recommendation is that in the presence of medial collateral ligament injuries, two-part radial head fractures should be fixed rather than excising or replacing the radial head. Direct biomechanical data comparing fracture fixation, radial head replacement and excision in a human cadaveric elbow model, have not been previously described. Such comparison is clinically important as with the increasing availability of radial head implants and promising follow up results, the role of radial head replacement in fracture management may have to be redefined. In this study, five fresh cadaveric elbows had radial head fracture creation and medial collateral ligament division, fracture fixation, radial head replacement and excision. Valgus and varus laxity were determined using an electromagnetic tracking system. Radial head replacement leads to a similar valgus (P=0.80) [corrected] laxity as compared to radial head fixation. Radial head excision resulted in a significantly greater valgus laxity as compared to radial head fixation (P=0.02) or replacement (P=0.03). Both radial head excision and replacement led to a greater varus laxity as compared to fixation. Our results suggest that in the elbow with medial collateral ligament injury and two-part radial head fracture, fixation is overall biomechanically superior as compared to replacement and excision. 相似文献

Functional anatomy of the lateral collateral ligament complex of the elbow: configuration of Y and its role 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Seki A Olsen BS Jensen SL Eygendaal D Søjbjerg JO 《Journal of shoulder and elbow surgery / American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons ... [et al.]》2002,11(1):53-59
A previous anatomic study has revealed that the lateral collateral ligament (LCL) complex of the elbow has a Y-shaped configuration, which consists of a superior, an anterior, and a posterior band. The LCL complex, including the annular ligament, functions as a 3-dimensional (3D) Y-shaped structure. On the basis of this concept, joint laxity after transection of the anterior band was studied in 5 normal, fresh-frozen cadaver elbows with a 3D kinematic testing apparatus. Cutting the anterior band produced significant laxity to varus torque with a mean 5.9 degree at 10 degree of elbow flexion and caused significant laxity to torque in external rotation with a mean 8.5 degree at 40 degree of flexion. No significant laxity was observed during application of valgus or internal rotational torque. Further transection of the posterior band resulted in gross instability with dislocation of the ulnohumeral joint. The laxity occurring after severance of the anterior band suggests that these fibers play a role in preservation of elbow stability against varus and external rotational torque. These results indicate that the LCL functions as a complex with a Y structure and not as an isolated linear ligament. A concept of conjoint point is hypothesized for the function of the LCL complex to restrain posterolateral rotatory instability. 相似文献

Coronoid process and radial head as posterolateral rotatory stabilizers of the elbow 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of the radial head and the coronoid process as posterolateral rotatory stabilizers of the elbow and to determine the stabilizing effect of radial head replacement and coronoid reconstruction. METHODS: The posterolateral rotatory displacement of the ulna was measured after application of a valgus and supinating torque (1). in seven intact elbows, (2). after radial head excision, (3). after sequential resection of the coronoid process, (4). after subsequent insertion of each of two different types of metal radial head prostheses (a rigid implant and a bipolar implant with a floating cup), and (5). after subsequent reconstruction of the coronoid with each of two different techniques in the same cadaveric elbow. RESULTS: The posterolateral rotatory laxity averaged 5.4 degrees in the intact elbows. The surgical approach used in this study insignificantly increased the mean laxity to 9 degrees. Excision of the radial head in an elbow with intact collateral ligaments caused a mean posterolateral rotatory laxity of 18.6 degrees (p < 0.0001). Additional removal of 30% of the height of the coronoid fully destabilized the elbows, always resulting in ulnohumeral dislocation despite intact ligaments. Implantation of a rigid radial head prosthesis stabilized the elbows. However, a mean laxity of 16.9 degrees persisted after insertion of a floating prosthesis (p < 0.0001). The elbows with a defect of 50% or 70% of the coronoid, loss of the radial head, and intact ligaments could not be stabilized by radial head replacement alone, but additional coronoid reconstruction restored stability. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study suggest that the coronoid and the radial head contribute significantly to posterolateral rotatory stability. 相似文献

This study determined the effect of radial head fracture size and ligament injury on elbow kinematics. Eight cadaveric upper extremities were studied in an in vitro elbow simulator. Testing was performed with ligaments intact, with the medial collateral (MCL) or lateral collateral (LCL) ligament detached, and with both the MCL and LCL detached. Thirty degree wedges were sequentially removed from the anterolateral radial head up to 120 degrees . Valgus angulation and external rotation of the ulna relative to the humerus were determined for passive motion, active motion, and pivot shift testing with the arm in a vertical (dependent) orientation. Maximum varus-valgus laxity was calculated from measurements of varus and valgus angulation with the arm in horizontal gravity-loaded positions. No effect of increasing radial head fracture size was observed on valgus angulation during passive and active motion in the dependent position. In supination, external rotation increased with increasing fracture size during passive motion with LCL deficiency and both MCL and LCL deficiency. With intact ligaments, maximum varus-valgus laxity increased with increasing radial head fracture size. With ligament disruption, elbows were grossly unstable, and no effect of increasing radial head fracture size occurred. During pivot shift testing, performed with the ligaments intact, subtle instability was noted after resection of one-third of the radial head. In this in vitro biomechanical study, small subtle effects of radial head fracture size on elbow kinematics and stability were seen in both the ligament intact and ligament deficient elbows. These data suggest that fixation of displaced radial head fractures less than or equal to one-third of the articular diameter may have some biomechanical advantages; however, clinical correlation is required. 相似文献

Elbow joint stability following experimental osteoligamentous injury and reconstruction 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Elbow joint dislocation was simulated in cadaveric specimens to quantify laxity induced by radial head and coronoid process lesions, either alone or in combination with collateral ligament insufficiency. The effects of lateral ligament reconstruction and radial head prosthesis replacement were also considered. Absence of the radial head and the coronoid process induced rotatory laxity of 145% and 128% (both P <.01), respectively, compared with the intact joint. When both were absent, the joints subluxated regardless of collateral ligament status. Isolated radial head prosthesis implantation prevented this subluxation, and laxity almost normalized. Lateral collateral ligament reconstruction prevented major laxity even in the absence of the radial head. Lateral collateral ligament reconstruction and radial head prosthetic replacement yielded restraint against gross instability in the maximal unstable situation (terrible triad). The lateral collateral ligament is the prime stabilizer to external rotation, and reconstruction of this alone, even with an absent radial head, is beneficial. 相似文献

Contribution of monoblock and bipolar radial head prostheses to valgus stability of the elbow. 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stabilizing effect of radial head replacement in cadaver elbows with a deficient medial collateral ligament. METHODS: Passive elbow flexion with the forearm in neutral rotation and in 80 degrees of pronation and supination was performed under valgus and varus loads (1) in intact elbows, (2) after a surgical approach (lateral epicondylar osteotomy of the distal part of the humerus), (3) after release of the anterior bundle of the medial collateral ligament, (4) after release of the anterior bundle of the medial collateral ligament and resection of the radial head, and (5) after subsequent replacement of the radial head with each of three different types of radial head prostheses (a Wright monoblock titanium implant, a KPS bipolar Vitallium [cobalt-chromium]-polyethylene implant, and a Judet bipolar Vitallium-polyethylene-Vitallium implant) in the same cadaver elbow. Total valgus elbow laxity was quantified with use of an electromagnetic tracking device. RESULTS: The mean valgus laxity changed significantly (p < 0.001) as a factor of constraint alteration. The greatest laxity was observed after release of the medial collateral ligament together with resection of the radial head (11.1 degrees +/- 5.6 degrees). Less laxity was seen following release of the medial collateral ligament alone (6.8 degrees +/- 3.4 degrees), and the least laxity was seen in the intact state (3.4 degrees +/- 1.6 degrees). Forearm rotation had a significant effect (p = 0.003) on valgus laxity throughout the range of flexion. The laxity was always greater in pronation than it was in neutral rotation or in supination. The mean valgus laxity values for the elbows with a deficient medial collateral ligament and an implant were significantly greater than those for the medial collateral ligament-deficient elbows before radial head resection (p < 0.05). The implants all performed similarly except in neutral forearm rotation, in which the elbow laxity associated with the Judet implant was significantly greater than that associated with the other two implants. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This study showed that a bipolar radial head prosthesis can be as effective as a solid monoblock prosthesis in restoring valgus stability in a medial collateral ligament-deficient elbow. However, none of the prostheses functioned as well as the native radial head, suggesting that open reduction and internal fixation to restore radial head anatomy is preferable to replacement when possible. 相似文献

This study examined the kinematic characteristics of the Pritchard ERS elbow-resurfacing system, with special attention paid to the effects of the radial head component. The kinematics between the ulna and humerus were assessed in 6 human cadaveric specimens by an electromagnetic tracking system throughout a full flexion/extension range of motion. The elbows were studied under 2 loading conditions, in 3 orientations (neutral, varus, and valgus), and under 4 surgical conditions. The varus/valgus and internal/external rotation laxities were used to assess the condition differences. Specifically, the maximum laxities throughout the extension motion were compared, as were the laxities at 40 degrees, 75 degrees, and 110 degrees of flexion. Both the varus/valgus and internal/external rotation laxities of the ulnohumeral joint increased after total elbow arthroplasty (TEA) implantation, with and without a radial head. This increase was most evident in the extension portion of the arc of motion. At 40 degrees of flexion, the varus/valgus laxity of the intact elbow was 4 degrees +/- 2 degrees versus 11 degrees +/- 8 degrees for a TEA with a radial head and 22 degrees +/- 11 degrees for a TEA without a radial head while the elbow was being subjected to compressive loads via the biceps, brachialis, and triceps. The kinematic data demonstrate a consistent increase in laxity with the Pritchard ERS TEA. They also indicate that a radial head component is necessary for optimal tracking and stability of the ERS arthroplasty. 相似文献

We studied the kinematics of 8 ligamentous unstable elbow joint preparations after application of the Orthofix elbow external fixation device. Valgus, varus, external rotatory, and internal rotatory load tests were performed in lateral collateral ligament (LCL)-deficient and LCL/medial collateral ligament (MCL)-deficient joints. After placement of the fixator, the mean extension decreased significantly to 19.5 degrees +/- 7.2 degrees in the LCL-deficient joint and to 19.1 degrees +/- 6.6 degrees in the LCL/MCL-deficient joint compared with the mean extension of the intact joint, which was 10.5 degrees +/- 4.2 degrees. After application of the fixator, valgus displacement was significantly decreased by 4.0 degrees +/- 3.4 degrees in the LCL-deficient joint and by 3.6 degrees +/- 3.3 degrees in the LCL/MCL-deficient joint compared with the intact joint. External rotatory displacement was significantly decreased in the LCL-deficient joint by 4.9 degrees +/- 3.7 degrees and in the LCL/MCL-deficient joint by 5.0 degrees +/- 4.7 degrees. Internal rotatory displacement was significantly decreased by 3.3 degrees +/- 2.7 degrees in the LCL-deficient joint, but it was not significantly changed in the LCL/MCL-deficient joint. The Orthofix elbow external fixator guided elbow motion to a more varus position compared with the intact elbow and decreased the range of motion of the joint, constraining mainly extension. We conclude that the fixator stabilized the ligamentous unstable elbow joint efficiently but at the expense of changes in the normal motion pattern. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The Wrightington approach to the radial head involves elevating anconeus from the proximal ulna to expose the supinator crest and then osteotomizing the bony insertion of the lateral ligament complex to the ulna. This avoids incising through the substance of the lateral ligament complex. The purpose of this study was to determine if there is any difference in laxity changes between using the posterolateral versus the Wrightington approach in performing surgery upon the radial head in a cadaveric model. METHODS: Ten cadaveric elbows had a radial head fracture created and the medial collateral ligament divided. They then sequentially had the posterolateral or Wrightington approach to the radial head, fracture fixation, head excision, and replacement. After each step, valgus and varus laxity and ulnar rotation were determined with an electromagnetic tracking system. RESULTS: After each step, there was a greater increase in valgus and varus laxity in the posterolateral group compared with the Wrightington group. After surgical exposure, radial head fracture fixation, and radial head excision, there was a statistically significant difference in the changes in rotation between the posterolateral and Wrightington approaches, with the former resulting in an increase in external and the latter an increase in internal rotation. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that the newly described Wrightington approach is biomechanically superior to the posterolateral approach with regard to changes in elbow laxity after surgery to the radial head. 相似文献

Metallic radial head arthroplasty improves valgus stability of the elbow 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

The stabilizing influence of radial head arthroplasty was studied in eight medial collateral ligament deficient anatomic specimen elbows. An elbow testing apparatus, which used computer controlled pneumatic actuators to apply tendon loading, was used to simulate active elbow flexion. The motion pathways of the elbow were measured using an electromagnetic tracking device, with the forearm in supination and pronation. As a measure of stability, the maximum varus to valgus laxity over the range of elbow flexion was determined from the difference between varus and valgus gravity loaded motion pathways. After transection of the medial collateral ligament, the radial head was excised and replaced with either a silicone or one of three metallic radial head prostheses. Medial collateral ligament transection caused a significant increase in the maximum varus to valgus laxity to 18.0 degrees +/- 3.2 degrees. After radial head excision, this laxity increased to 35.6 degrees +/- 10.3 degrees. The silicone implant conferred no increase in elbow stability, with a maximum varus to valgus laxity of 32.5 degrees +/- 15.5 degrees. All three metallic implants improved the valgus stability of the medial collateral ligament deficient elbow, providing stability similar to the intact radial head. The use of silicone arthroplasty to replace the radial head in the medial collateral ligament deficient elbow must be questioned. Metallic radial head arthroplasty provides improved valgus stability, approaching that of an intact radial head. 相似文献

We designed an experimental study to prove the existence of the popliteofibular ligament (PFL) and to define its role in providing static stability of the knee. We also examined the contribution of the lateral collateral ligament (LCL). We found this ligament to be present in all eight human cadaver knees examined. These specimens were mounted on a specially designed rig and subjected to posterior, varus and external rotational forces. We used the technique of selective sectioning of ligaments and measured the displacement with a constant force applied, before and after its division. We recorded the displacement in primary posterior translation, coupled external rotation, primary varus angulation and primary external rotation. Statistical analysis using the standard error of the mean by plotting 95% confidence intervals, was used to evaluate the results. The PFL had a significant role in preventing excessive posterior translation and varus angulation, and in restricting excessive primary and coupled external rotation. Isolated section of the belly of popliteus did not cause significant posterolateral instability of the knee. The LCL was also seen to act as a primary restraint against varus angulation and secondary restraint against external rotation and posterior displacement. Our findings showed that in knees with isolated disruption of the PFL stability was restored when it was reconstructed. However in knees in which the LCL was also disrupted, isolated reconstruction of the PFL did not restore stability. 相似文献

The effects of a radial head component on total elbow arthroplasty kinematics and stability were evaluated using an anatomic design unlinked total elbow prosthesis. An electromagnetic tracking device recorded motion and varus and valgus displacements under various conditions in 10 cadaveric elbows. The motion patterns of the intact elbows and the Sorbie-Questor total elbow prostheses with a radial head component were similar, as both tended to have a valgus position in extension, varus at midflexion, and more valgus toward full flexion. Under conditions of simulated muscle loading, the maximum valgus and varus laxity of the elbow prosthesis was, on average, 8.6 degrees +/- 4.0 degrees greater than normal. Without the radial head component, however, significant kinematic disturbances and instabilities were seen. The varus and valgus displacements were 13.3 degrees +/- 5.5 degrees greater than the intact elbows. One total elbow arthroplasty without a radial head dislocated during testing. Increasing the muscle loading across the elbow significantly enhanced dynamic stability of the total elbow arthroplasties, especially in the extension half of elbow motion where instability is greatest. However, this dynamic enhancement of stability was seen only in those elbows in which the radial head component had been implanted. The radial head component is an important stabilizer, particularly in extension for this prosthesis, and possibly for other unlinked total elbow prostheses. Although instability of unlinked prostheses depends on the prosthetic design, the use of a radial head replacement may be an important factor in preventing such instability. Perhaps even more importantly, a radial head component balances the load distribution across the articulation, which could decrease stress on the ulnohumeral articulation and therefore possibly reduce polyethylene wear, osteolysis, and loosening. 相似文献

Background
After elbow fracture-dislocation, surgeons confront numerous treatment options in pursuing a stable joint for early motion. The relative contributions of the radial head and coronoid, in combination, to elbow stability have not been defined fully.Questions/purposes
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an approximately 50% transverse coronoid fracture and fixation in the setting of an intact or resected radial head on coronal (varus/valgus) and axial (internal and external rotational) laxity in (1) gravity varus stress; and (2) gravity valgus stress models.Methods
Kinematic data were collected on six fresh-frozen cadaveric upper extremities tested with passive motion throughout the flexion arc under varus and valgus gravity stress with lateral collateral ligaments reconstructed. Testing included coronoid fracture and osteosynthesis with and without a radial head.Results
In the varus gravity stress model, fixation of the coronoid improved varus stability (fixed: 1.6° [95% confidence interval, 1.0–2.2], fractured: 5.6° [4.2–7.0], p < 0.001) and internal rotational stability (fixed: 1.8° [0.9–2.7], fractured: 5.4° [4.0–6.8], p < 0.001), but radial head fixation did not contribute to varus stability (intact head: 2.7° [1.3–4.1], resected head: 3.8° [2.3–5.3], p = 0.4) or rotational stability (intact: 2.7° [0.9–4.5], resected head: 3.9° [1.5–6.3], p = 0.4). With valgus stress, coronoid fixation improved valgus stability (fixed: 2.1° [1.0–3.1], fractured: 3.8° [1.8–5.8], p < 0.04) and external rotation stability (fixed: 0.8° [0.1–1.5], fractured: 2.1° [0.9–3.4], p < 0.04), but the radial head played a more important role in providing valgus stability (intact: 1.4° [0.8–2.0], resected head: 7.1° [3.5–10.7], p < 0.001).Conclusions
Fixation of a 50% transverse coronoid fracture improves varus and internal rotatory laxity but is unlikely to meaningfully improve valgus or external rotation laxity. The radial head, on the other hand, is a stabilizer to resist valgus stress regardless of the status of the coronoid.Clinical Relevance
Determination as to whether it is necessary to fix a coronoid fracture should be based on the stability of the elbow when tested with a varus load. The elbow may potentially be stable with fractures involving less than 50% of the coronoid. Under all circumstances, the radial head should be fixed or replaced to ensure valgus external rotatory stability. 相似文献18.
Elbow dislocation with intra-articular fracture: the results of operative treatment without repair of the medial collateral ligament 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
PURPOSE: To determine the effectiveness of a protocol for the treatment of fracture-dislocations of the elbow based on the concept that, if dislocation of the elbow with associated fractures can be made to resemble a simple elbow dislocation by repairing or reconstructing the fractured structures, repair of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) will not be necessary. METHODS: Over a 5-year period, a single surgeon operated on 34 patients with a posterior dislocation of the elbow associated with one or more intra-articular fractures. The mean age of these 19 men and 15 women was 48 years. Associated fractures included the capitellum, trochlea, and lateral epicondyle in 3 patients; the olecranon in 1 patient; and the radial head in 30 patients (with concomitant fracture of the coronoid process-the so-called "terrible triad" of the elbow-in 22 patients, and concomitant fracture of the coronoid and olecranon in 1 patient). Operative treatment consisted of open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) or prosthetic replacement of all fractures and reattachment of the origin of the lateral collateral ligament (LCL) complex to the lateral epicondyle. The MCL was not repaired. RESULTS: Two patients (1 with a terrible triad injury and 1 with fracture of the capitellum and trochlea) had postoperative instability related to noncompliance, had reconstructive procedures, and were considered failures. An average of 32 months after injury, the remaining 32 patients regained an average of 120 degrees ulnohumeral motion and 142 degrees forearm rotation. Twenty-five of 34 patients (74%) had good or excellent results according to the system of Broberg and Morrey. Patients with terrible triad injuries had an average of 117 degrees ulnohumeral motion and 137 degrees forearm rotation, and 17 of 22 patients (77%) had good or excellent results. CONCLUSIONS: MCL repair is unnecessary in the treatment of dislocation of the elbow with associated intra-articular fractures, provided that the articular fractures and the LCL are repaired or reconstructed. 相似文献

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the contributions of the popliteofibular ligament (PFL), the popliteus tendon (PT), and the lateral (fibular) collateral ligament (LCL) to the posterolateral stability of the knee by changing the sequence of selective transection. Twelve fresh‐frozen cadaveric knees were divided into two groups. Group 1 has a cutting sequence as follows: PFL, PT, LCL. Group 2 has a cutting sequence as follows: PT, PFL, LCL. Each specimen was mounted on the apparatuses using the Ilizarov external fixator for measuring external rotatory and varus laxities at every 30° from 0° to 90° of knee flexion. In both groups, there was no significant difference between the PFL and PT in the increment of respective external rotatory laxity after transection at each knee flexion angle, except 0° in group 2. The transection of the LCL significantly increased the external rotation laxity at 0° and 30°. Varus instability was increased significantly only after cutting the LCL at every knee flexion angle. In conclusion, both the PFL and PT equally contribute to the external rotatory stability. The LCL also contributes to the external rotatory stability at early range of knee flexion. The LCL is a main structure for varus stability in the knee. © 2008 Orthopaedic Research Society. Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Orthop Res 26:1371–1376, 2008 相似文献
